According to the women, sometimes vendors who knew that they were cooking for the officers would offer them items like charcoal for free.

The women said as of Tuesday, April 28, they had fed the officers for two weeks already and they would not stop until the fight against the COVID-19 ends.

"The biggest challenge was how the officers would get food to eat, As you can see where the roadblock is, there is nowhere to buy anything to eat or even drink," said Mohamed Abbas, the Matungulu County Commissioner.
